Columnist Rick Gosselin answered questions in a chat Thursday. Here are some highlights:

Great to see Miles Austin finally healthy. Is there a chance he ends up with more catches this year than Dez with all the coverage Dez will see?

Gosselin: You certainly saw Austin as a huge beneficiary last night. Bryant will wear a coverage target on his back all season and Austin, Witten and Williams will have the chance to feed off single coverage. Bryant caught four passes for 22 yards last night with a long of 7. As competitive as he is, he's going to want more touches and more chances than that. That's where maturity comes in. Everyone raved about his growth as a person and as a player in the second half of last season. But it's easy to be the happiest camper when you are catching all the passes and scoring all the touchdowns. Let's see how Bryant handles a reduced workload and increased coverage this fall. The great ones figure out how to beat 2-3 defenders. It didn't keep Jerry Rice out of the Hall of Fame. In the meantime, Austin will be a great player to activate on any fantasy football team.

Outside of the horrible wrong route he ran, I liked what i saw out of Terrance Williams in his first game. Would you rather see him or Harris as the 3rd WR right now?

Gosselin: Right now, I'd rather see Harris. He's less risk. But Williams has the upside, he's the future at the position, and the Cowboys are going to give him more work to accelerate his development. All rookie WRs tend to struggle regardless of what round they were drafted. They see tighter coverage in the NFL than they ever aw in college. They have to work harder in their routes to free themselves for the chance to catch the ball. Forty catches qualifies as a good season for most rookie WRs. Don't expect Williams to throw down a 70-catch season in 2013. But credit the Cowboys for putting a young player on the field and trying to maximize his contribution. There will be some early growing pains -- but this team should cash some huge benefits down the road.

Why push so hard to get the rookie in as the 3rd receiver when Harris did so well in that roll last year? Especially in such an important game.

Gosselin: Because Williams is the future of this team at wide receiver. In 2-3 years it will be Williams and Bryant as the starters. You don't do that by letting him sit for two years and then throwing him out there. Williams is a talent the Cowboys both want and need to develop. There will be some early growing pains, as there were last night on that interception, but this team will benefit in the long run from the investment in time they are making in Williams as a rookie.
